Changing of the guard
I'm pretty sure I'm hearing baby bushtits in the nest! Tiny tiny 'tssts tssts.' And the parents are very busy this morning, in and out of the nest - one comes out, the other goes in. I think I saw a fat bug in the beak of one of them. Now it's hard to not just camp out and watch all day, hoping to get a peek at a bushtitling.
Going to be hot here the next few days -- high 80s (30-31C), which we are so not used to. I'll have to wear something besides my corduroy shirts, which I've lived in for months. And dig the fans out of the basement.
In the photo, the male is in front, the female is in the nest. Look LARGE for a treat!
